In 2014, Dan showed off the DECKED Truck Bed Storage Drawers that he installed on his Ford F150 to solve his truck bed storage crisis and it was a dream come true. Since then DECKED has evolved its lineup of truck bed storage options. Since storage is a common problem for most truck owners, we decided to step back and take a look at how the brand’s truck bed storage solution has evolved.
Guide
Common Truck Storage Problems
Pickup trucks are great vehicles that offer owners a ton in terms of towing and horsepower, terrain capabilities, and allow you to move a variety of items and materials. However, the trade-off is less seating and less storage.
Whether your pickup is your work truck or your recreational vehicle, we all have unique storage needs. Not all of us need the traditional tonneau cover or tool box. How to access our storage items is another common problem truck owners deal with.
How DECKED Solves the Truck Bed Storage Crisis
The first DECKED Truck Bed Storage prototype was made out of plywood and modeled after a napkin drawing. The goal was to end the chaotic mess of tools and supplies found in the back of a pickup.
The solution?
A variety of heavy-duty drawers, trays and dividers that allow you to maximize the full length of your truck bed, but also allow you to easily access items whether they were located at the back or front of your truck bed.
DECKED Products
These are DECKED’s most popular truck bed storage options, plus a variety of accessories to enhance the products and further customize your truck bed storage.
DECKED Drawer Systems
The DECKED Drawer Systems is what the original prototype was based off of. This system includes two side-by-side heavy-duty drawers that span from the front of your truck bed to the back.
